Your mollies will probaly be alright if you feed them very finely crushed flake food! You Could probaly keep them in the breeder net for now until you get the tank cycled. If all else fails the other fish in the tank would love a feast :Angel:

Your mollies will be fine in a breeder net for at least 3 weeks. I have found that they are easier to feed, and easier to keep an eye on while they are in the net. I wouldn't keep them in the net for longer than 3 weeks. What do you plan on doing with them? Sometimes its best to let mother nature take its course and let the strongest survive in the main tank, that is unless you intend on breeding them for a purpose imo. Have a great day!
